I'm a huge fan of 'if you don't like it, leave'. If you don't like the non-muslim way of life, go back to where you came from because obviously you have no purpose here.
How do you acheive world domination by leaving. Hate to break it to you, but that's where this is all headed. I would put money on the two dominant cultures in the world in the year 2100 being Muslim and Chinese. Ever notice the inroads they have made into western countries? I rarely see a muslim or Chinese family without at least 3 kids, usually many more.
I think before it reaches this point with the middle east there will be war.
The only reason the middle east is anything is oil. Otherwise it'd be an extension of most of Africa and nothing existent on the world stage. It may take a century, but once oil runs out, the middle east will just regress even further.
Don't you guys understand that the nation you import the most amount of oil from is Canada?
Unfortunately the Arabs have been quite smart, they've taken this money and invested it in technology, infrastructure and truly unique ideas, though the prosperity will recede they have backup insdustries now to fall back on.
Don't you know understand that the rest of the world gets more oil from the ME than we do from Canada?
Also, maybe I'm just an econ. noob, wth is a backup industry? Industry gets outdated, and I don't see Intel or AMD putting fabs in the ME anytime soon. Nor Ford, GE, Toyota, not to mention everything is made in China or Vietnam.
